About Arugula side salad

The Arugula Side Salad is a fresh, light dish often enjoyed in Mediterranean-inspired cuisine. This salad features peppery arugula leaves as its base, complemented by slices of juicy tomatoes, thinly shaved red onion, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese for added depth of flavor. Typically dressed with a simple vinaigrette made of olive oil, lemon juice, and salt, the salad highlights natural, wholesome ingredients. Arugula is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, and provides antioxidants, making it a nutritious choice. The olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while the parmesan cheese contributes calcium in moderation. Low in calories and high in flavor, this salad is a refreshing and satisfying accompaniment to heavier dishes, though its sodium level can be slightly elevated depending on the dressing or cheese used.
